Bunions, a common foot condition, are often caused by a variety of things that often lead to the misalignment of the big toe joint. Hereditary factors, improper footwear, and underlying foot deformities add to the development of bunions. People with a family history are genetically predisposed and wearing tight or narrow shoes can exacerbate the condition. Furthermore, underlying foot issues like flat feet or low arches can increase the risk.
Addressing bunions requires specialized care, and we at Midlands Orthopaedics play a crucial role in providing effective solutions. Orthopaedic specialists can conduct a comprehensive assessment to determine the root cause of bunions and tailor treatment plans accordingly. Non-surgical interventions such as orthotic devices, shoe modifications, and physical therapy can alleviate symptoms and slow down progression. In cases requiring surgical intervention, we advise advanced procedures like bunionectomy to correct the deformity.
Choosing Midlands Orthopaedics as your medical provider will guarantee effective treatment of bunions. Our patients benefit from the expertise of orthopaedic surgeons, cutting-edge diagnostic technologies, and a holistic approach to foot health. By addressing the underlying causes and providing personalized solutions, Midlands Orthopaedics empowers individuals to overcome discomfort and challenges, promoting long-term foot health and overall well-being.
